In this study, we construct a sample of UV-selected galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts, rather than \(\mbox{Ly$\alpha $}\)  emission selected-galaxies, in the MUSE eXtremely Deep Field [1]}, making use of more than 100-hour integration time of MUSE adaptive optics (AO) data. The high spatial resolution and the unprecedented depth are key to obtain spectroscopic redshifts for galaxies and spatial profiles of diffuse emission. Using the MUSE data, we investigate the existence of \(\mbox{Ly$\alpha $}\)  haloes around the galaxies and for the first time derive the \(\mbox{Ly$\alpha $}\)  halo fraction for UV-selected galaxies. We can resolve compact and faint haloes and assess the presence of a \(\mbox{Ly$\alpha $}\)  halo with the highest accuracy to date. This allows us to connect the separate views of H i gas observed through \(\mbox{Ly$\alpha $}\)  emission and \(\mbox{Ly$\alpha $}\)  absorption, by extending the work by [2]} and [3]}.
